Sands Motor Inn

The Sands Motor Inn at 345 N. Arlington Ave. in Reno. Built in 1965, it started as a motel. A hotel tower was added in the 1970s. More hotel towers and casinos were added over the decades, and this original motel was demolished in the 1990s. The property became the Sand Regency, then in 2023 was renamed to the J Resort.
